Cyber Attack Hits U.S. Newspaper Distribution (Sun-Sentinel & New York Times Included) (Reuters) – A cyber attack caused major printing and delivery disruptions on Saturday at the Los Angeles Times and other major U.S. newspapers, including ones owned by Tribune Publishing Co (TPCO.O) such as the Chicago Tribune and Baltimore Sun. Read Buddy Nevins post on BrowardBeat.com about the virus attack on the Sun-Sentinel and New York Times The cyber attack appeared to originate outside the United States, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing a source with knowledge of the situation. The attack led to distribution delays in the Saturday edition of The Times, Tribune, Sun and other newspapers that share a production platform in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Times reported. Tribune Publishing, whose newspapers also include the New York Daily News and Orlando Sentinel, said it first detected the malware on Friday. The West Coast editions of the Wall Street Journal and New York Times were hit as they are also printed on the shared production platform, the Los Angeles Times said. Tribune Publishing spokeswoman Marisa Kollias said the virus hurt back-office systems used to publish and produce “newspapers across our properties.” “There is no evidence that customer credit card information or personally identifiable information has been compromised,” Kollias said in a statement The Wall Street Journal and New York Times did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Most San Diego Union-Tribune subscribers were without a newspaper on Saturday as the virus infected the company’s business systems and hobbled its ability to publish, the paper’s editor and publisher Jeff Light wrote on its website. A spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security said it was studying the situation. “We are aware of reports of a potential cyber incident affecting several news outlets, and are working with our government and industry partners to better understand the situation,” said DHS spokeswoman Katie Waldman in a statement. Representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation were not immediately available for comment. Reporting By Jim Finkle; Additional reporting by Andrew Hay; Editing by David Gregorio.

(Michael M Santiago/GettyImages/Getty Images) Just days before the eviction moratorium was set to expire, Albany passed emergency legislation to halt evictions until May 1, 2021. For the estimated 1.2 million New York families in rent arrears — many of whom are families with children — this news brought a momentary sigh of relief, but the paralyzing fear of eviction this spring shortly followed as New York still lacks any long-term plan to keep families safely housed. With hospitalizations and positivity rates continuing to spike and new unemployment claims being led at a dizzying pace, this temporary eviction ban is not a long-term solution, nor is waiting for the stars to align so we can return to “normal.” Consider this: When the 12.1% of New Yorkers collecting unemployment are able to return to a healthy job market, how many months of rental arrears will have piled up? And is repayment even possible? In 2018, 22% of New York City renters paid more than half of their household income in rent.

JUDGE: DOMA UNLAWFUL Mahony, Edmund H
JUDGE: DOMA UNLAWFUL Mahony, Edmund H . Hartford Courant ; Hartford, Conn. [Hartford, Conn]01 Aug 2012: B.3. ProQuest document link ABSTRACT [...]the couples said they are excluded from a host of federal programs and protections, such as paid medical and family leave and survivor benefits under some Social Security laws. FULL TEXT A federal judge in Hartford ruled Tuesday that a federal law that defines marriage as a legal union between a man and a woman is unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Vanessa L. Bryant ruled that Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act illegally prevents gay married couples from receiving the same benefits under federal law as heterosexual married couples. Bryant's ruling may have limited significance when considered among similar rulings in related challenges filed around the country by gay rights groups or their legal advocates. Bryant's decision is expected to be appealed, as are related suits in New York, Boston and elsewhere. The Obama administration has asked the Supreme Court to decide the issue. At the center of all the suits is the question of whether the Defense of Marriage Act violates the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution by discriminating against gay, married couples Section 3 of DOMA requires that the word marriage, when included in any federal law or regulation, "means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word 'spouse' refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife." The six gay couples from Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont whose suit reached Bryant argued that the act prevents their marriages, legal in states such as Connecticut, from being recognized under more than 1,000 federal laws.

The New York Times Paywall
9-512-077 R E V : JANUARY 31, 2013 VINEET KUMAR BHARAT ANAND SUNIL GUPTA FELIX OBERHOLZER - GEE The New York Times Paywall Every newspaper in the country is paying close, close attention [to the Times paywall], wondering if they can get readers of online news to pay. Is that the future, or a desperate attempt to recreate the past?. Will paywalls work for newspapers? — Tom Ashbrook, host of On Point, National Public Radio1 On March 28, 2011, The New York Times (The Times) website became a restricted site. The home page and section front pages were unrestricted, but users who exceeded the allotted “free quota” of 20 articles for a month were directed to a web page where they could purchase a digital subscription. The paywall was launched earlier on March 17, 2011, in Canada, which served as the testing ground to detect and resolve possible problems before the global launch. The Times website had been mostly free for its entire existence, except for a few months in 2006–2007 when TimesSelect was launched. Traditional newspapers had been struggling to maintain profitability in the online medium, and they were eager to see how the public would react to the creation of a paywall at the most popular news website in the U.S. Martin Nisenholtz, the senior vice president of Digital Operations at The Times, was optimistic about the willingness of users to pay: I think the majority of people are honest and care about great journalism and The New York Times. When you look at the research that we’ve done, tons of people actually say, “Jeez, we’ve felt sort of guilty getting this for free all these years.

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS NOW JUST a BUCK New York's
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS NOW JUST A BUCK New York’s Hometown Paper Announces Weekday Newsstand Price Drop From $1.25 to $1.00 In All Five Boroughs Effective Monday, January 11, 2016 New York, NY—January 6, 2016—The New York Daily News, the most widely read tabloid in the city and one of America's largest news websites, announced today the newsstand price of the weekday print edition of the newspaper will drop from $1.25 to $1.00 in all five boroughs of New York City. The change will go into effect on Monday, January 11, 2016. “As New York’s hometown paper, we look for every opportunity to bring our loyal readers the news they need at a lower price point,” said Bill Holiber, President and CEO of the New York Daily News. “The diversity of this city is a huge part of what makes our journalism great, and we are committed to ensure the community has a voice on issues both locally and nationally.” The 20% price drop for New Yorkers comes on the heels of the Daily News’ unwavering and passionate calls for gun control in the wake of the San Bernardino shootings. As one of the most widely circulated daily newspapers in the United States, the Daily News used its national platform to provoke a necessary conversation on the senseless violence and resulting death toll, urging Congress to act in order to prevent additional human casualties. The Daily News’ reporting and editorial coverage elicited a nationwide response from politicians, the media, and impassioned readers.
